Let's say we have 32 combined channels. In this case RX queues 0..31 are 
regular ones, and 32..63 are XSK-ZC-enabled.

It'll trigger the compatibility mode of AF_XDP (without zero copy). You 
should use queue 42, which is in the 32..63 set.

Only the regular 0..31 RX queues are part of RSS.

I used to have the final patch as three patches (add XSK stubs, add RX 
support and add TX support), but I prefer not to have this separation, 
because it doesn't look right to add empty stub functions with /* TODO: 
implement */ comments in one patch and to add the implementations 
immediately in the next patch.

Thanks for reviewing!
